Rahtâcheer.
No wait. Thatâs talk like my more recent ancestors day.
Try again:
Heeeer it beeee missy! Pull up a gunâl and take a load off yerâ pegs.
Iâll be taking over this ship with me crew, Aar! Weâll make all the francy breehes lubbers walk da plank, Aar! Or we may make them dive for Davy Jones locker by the playing of our hornpipes! AAR!

Arrr, some of us âr not on the Greenwich Mean Time.
Aye, me Jolly Roger be hoisted. Though the winds âr
becalmed, I hope fer a likely vessel ta drift inta me
sights, as Iâm rareinâ fer a good pillaginâ, I am.


Why is the rum always gone ?
yer on the wrong ship swabby




Aye, ye scurvy lads anâ lusty wenches, anâ here be a dictionumary tâ help yuz wich yer palaver!
Anâ beware the dread pirate Fiona. Aargh! Ifân she comes alongside yer, sheâll make ye walk her plank, ifân ye gets me drift.
R!
Two of my ancestors sailed under letters of marque. They were both quite educated and urbane. None of this talking like pirates stuff and they both preferred brandy. Well weâre off to steal our ship, stay out of the Chesapeake Bay if ya know whatâs good fer ye!
Aye, and they say 'is last words, just before they stretchâed 'im out, were: âTwas but a mashruuc cilmi baaridâ.
I be sailinâ the Gulf shores today, mates, wiâ me treasure map! There is more than one educated and urbane gentleman whaâs dug his savinâs into the sands hereabout, and me intent is to find it! Harrr!
After deliverin folks theâr letters anâ such today, I decided tâ dwell on thâ horrors oâ life fer thâ rest oâ thâ evening
Tis a sorry world 'tisâŚ
'Tis a sad world, indeed, when this opportunity comes but once a year. Sigh.
Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! âEvery normal man(and/or woman) must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.â â H. L. Mencken
Aaarr. All but thâspittinâ parrt.
Arr! When I boarded me computer this marninâ, me free antivirus software was askinâ me if I wanted to install some free booty: the Pirate language package. Although it went agin me grain to take something offered free rather than plundering it meself, I did avail meself of the offer. Anyway, it seemed only natural to have Pirate talk in a program called Avast!
